Who says

O

Ok.. folks seem to want to know what is different between the 13 and other model spyders.... Previous models had an open area between the top cover and the side covers. these are enclosed on the 13's... I'm sure it was to reduce heat to the rider, but it is cooking everything under the Tupperware. On previous models you could see the exhaust pipe on the left side... now it is covered .. holding in more heat.... the right side is equally blocked. Keeping the rider cool at the expense of the bike is not a good deal... HEY... it's a motorcycle.... it gets hot.... the heat needs to get OUT!!!!! you are not supposed to ride in shorts and flip flops.... We want a bike that vents and cools itself ...

I ride in shorts and flip flops every day 365 days per year. Now who wants to tell me I'm not supposed to. Are you with the Feds, PETA or from Mars. Get a Life.

Are you a spammer?

What type Spyder do you have?

Or are you researching?

ride in shorts... ride naked.. no matter to me...IF I don't have to see it.... the heat issues remain... the blocking off of the air vents on the 13's vs. the 12's and earlier is what we WERE talking about.... Thanks for the hijacks... Y'all are pretty entertaining... if not technical....nojoke

Which air vents exactly are we talking about being blocked off?


I have an ST-S, first year for this model, so perhaps you're talking about an RT?


I just haven't been able to tell much difference in the models except the RT has more body and the RS has less body. LOL

[hotglue]

Yeah... but are you driving naked.... that seems to be the big issue here...:yes:
